The President and Mrs Cleveland are at
last in the west and travelling throug the
best country on earth. and every body
wishes them pleasant journey and safe
return. When they reach the furthest
western point set down in their itinerary
they will be less than half way across
Uncle Sans big farm; and if they were to
keep right on across the continent to San
Francisco they would still have nearly or
quite as long a journey TO make In order to
reach the far northwestern corner In which
he pastures his white bears and his seals.
But even in this comparatively short trip
of twenty odd days and 1850 miles, the
hitherto untraveled president will see much
to interest and surprise him-much also to
educate him. if he sees Alright.

Rural Bend.

OHIO COUNTY, Feb. 5th, 1857.
Green river is on mad boom, and
getting madden, the water is all over
the bottoms, and the river still rising
fast.
In this neighbOrhood, We are isolated
being cut off by Turkey Run. The
new made island is not a Dolores, but
one of plenty, and unalloyed happiness,
We have plenty to eat, plenty of fuel,
plenty of water, but no whisky, and
for the latter, We are truly grateful.
The health of this community ia
good. bu. the people generally are
restless; times are still hard, no money,
nothing doing in tobacco; one crop sold
here for SO around. Many farmers de-

There were three mad dogs killed in
the Bend last week, no harm done.

ever used in my family. My wife had
violent cough for six years, and
tried almost everything, but nothing
seemed to do her any good. We had
almost given up all hopes of her being
cured. / got some of your Gooch's
Mexican Syrup, and she used six bot
ties, and 1t cured her sound and well

Sick Tobacco Growers.

V. NJ. Metcalf in farmers Home Journal.
am personally interested In every
tobacco grower reading this article,
hence II you do not wish to investigate
the subject of tobacco growing simply
because some one is or may be benefit
ed by selling something, then you are
excused and pay the cost.
But the question is why are tobacco
raisers said to be sick? Because 1t costs
more to raise their tobacco than they
get for it. OF course they are disheart-
eDed; who would not be? There are
many causes for the low prices of tobac-
co, and there are many remedies pro-
posed by various parties who, no doubt,
are smarting under the sad experience
of losses. From my standpoint they
have all missed the mark, and now l
will give my views for what they are
worth. 1t may he, some will profit by
them and thank me, others will shake
their heads or curl the lips in derision
at the thought Of my teaching them
anything.
When / was boy, my little brother
aud myself would 20 fishiLg. When
we got out of bait, he would cry be-
cause, he said, the fish would all swim
away when we went to get more bait.
The fact was, he did not like to turn
over rocks and dig for the worms.
Just so with too many farmers, Iu-
stead of taking time to post themselves
and to study the great laws Of produc-
ton and Of supply and demand, they
are hard at work, for fear the fish will
all swim away before they get back.
My advice is not to rely on any one
crop alone. Never cultivate old
ground except with view to making
it better. Never cultivate more than
two or three acres Of tobacco TO the
hand, just what you can cultivate and
handle properly.
High manuring, good cultivation and
careful handling pay better on tobac-
co than any crop l know of. Mr.. J.J,
Stewart, of my county. raised 2,047
pounds of dark tobacco on one acre.
Magruder Il Hardesty, of Shelby coun-
ty, raised 2,742 pounds. They both
planted in rich ground, used stable
manure and fertilizer. BY using them
together you make larger yield and
better grade.
If farmers will put in one-half or one
fourth their usual crop, and plant and
handle as suggested, they will make
money and we will hear no more of
sick tobacco planters.

and are hereby rendered those Senators
and Representatives from Kentucky
and Indiana who have labOred so dill
igently to accomplish the end in view.
RESOLVED, That we call the atten-

improvements and we earnestly request
that our friends in Congress ask an APP
preparation for such Improvement, pro-
vided they can comply with our request

A Well Attended Reception AZ
Hazards Pavilion.
An immense crowd assembled at
the Pavilion last night to welcome
His Eminence, Cardinal Gibbons, the
entire lower floor being filled, and the
galleries comfortably packed.
Elaborate preparations had been
made for the reception, the large hall
being tastefully decorated with flags
and bunting and the stage handsomely
adorned with flowers and evergreens.
Long streamers extended from the top
of the roof to the surrounding sides
and ends, presenting gorgeous ap-
pearance.
In the middle of the proscenium
large armchair had been placed,
for the Cardinal, and was beau
tifully festooned with rare flowers.
Over it in semi-circle was
suspended the single word swell
come" while Immediately above it
the national colors were gracefully
suspended.
The programme which had been ar
ranged for the evening was as follows:
Address of welcome-Hon. W. II.
Workman.

At about $50 the Cardinal entered
the building attended by Bishops

to the back entrance to the stage came
forward upon it, the entire audience
rising to its feet in recognition OF his
arrival, which he gracefully acknowl-
| edged by slight inclination of the
head.
| About fifty seats had been arranged
for those who were to occupy the
stage and all these were filled by
prominent citizens, including mem

John Brock Tries to Rob the
Wrong Chinaman.

Deputy Constable Brady captured
John Brock last night on Aliso street
in u condition which showed that he
had encountered some severe treat
ment at the hands of some person as
vet unknown. Blood was dripping
from Brooks left hand, and it was ev-
ident from the gingerly way in which
he walked that he had been cut else
where. With the assistance of Deputy
Constable Hunter, Brady conducted
Brock to the County Jail, where he
was stripped, and it was found that he
had been stabbed through the left
arm. After this wound was dressed
six or seven smaller wounds were found
on the under side Of the upper portion
of his legs, as if he had been prodded
from behind. Brock refused to tell
who had inflicted the wounds, but it
was surmised that he had tried to rob
a Chinaman who was nimble, with the
knife. Brock is a hard looking char
acter and has been in the County Jail
before.
